Maricopa County News
“On May 16, a Regional Visioning exercise will be held to look at the growth of Maricopa County and Northern Pinal County. "AZ One - A Reality Check for Central Arizona," will look at this region which is expected to more than double in population in the next several decades. The challenge will be figuring out where to put everyone - and providing adequate infrastructure to accommodate these new Arizonans.
Currently, 300 people are being sought to participate in this one-day program. Anyone can nominate themselves or others through the website - www.azonefuture.com <http://www.azonefuture.com/>. While at the website, you can view a couple of videos on similar efforts held in Tampa Bay, FL and Washington DC.
The Arizona Department of Commerce recently launched the agency's new Office of Smart Growth. This Office engages in planning and zoning technical assistance, boards and commissions training, public participation, military land use compatibility, and an expanded smart growth focus.
